Connie , Teresa, 

so true..every word... our children have their own lives despite ours... we have witnessed a closeness to life through love and have had a chance to partake in the creative process and for that my gratitude that I was given a chance to love so easily and unconditionally.. we have seen our children's life as a trajectory from birth to death..its painful even to type 'death'... we knew not before they were born how love stole unawares upon us but we do know that love will never cease to be. Wherever they are they are so deeply loved and only good things will happen to our darlings.. that is not a hope but a conviction. Just wishing us strength in this non-negotiable situation.It is going to hurt to ask for what cannot be so I pray for wisdom to dawn on us and love to hold us close and joy to be able to give our fellow travelers on this journey of life. xoxoxox

We are in a non negotiable situation.

Still haven't figured out how to get my old page back. Anyone?
I'm struggling to look at pictures too. Dick, modeling isn't a great profession. It want his path. Linda, I do understand. Don was my first born. I remember how each day of that pregnancy was. Hurting for us all

I know what you mean Dick. I want a do over too. But then I realize that our children had their own lives, their own paths. Their own choices. Their own destiny - despite ours. Our influence may not have been as important as we think and beat ourselves over.  Of course, hind sight is 20/20. Oh... but it weren't!

Could I have done something, sure. I strongly suggested Danny finish University, even though he got some job to do modeling in New York, New York. Houston is just not the place for that even though he did some.

Rather than commercial diving, he would have been a model and history would have been changed. I live that decision every day. Modeling would not have been so taxing on his body, not had the heart attack, ergo he would be with us. I want a do over, please God?

Comment by Jesse's Mom on November 11, 2014 at 5:50pm

Lately, it is like I am frozen up inside...I am finding it hard to look at Jesse's pictures, listen to his voice recording, or go to the grave. I have spent the last 2 years screaming in my head and sometimes wanted to dive off a cliff. I almost feel disloyal to him...but it has become so unbearably hard to look at his picture and realize he is not physically here.... 

Has anyone else noticed this happening to them?

as a mother who has lost her only child only months ago, I now find myself looking at expectant mothers and remember my own pregnancy. although my daughter was 31 when she left me it's as though it was just yesterday that I was rubbing my bulging belly and singing to her, buying the little things my precious gift will need, deciding what to name her. Oh how it hurts. So much pain.

Hitting me

My daughter did MAID last Tuesday and I've been holding up okay.But just now the Christmas convoy (trucks all lit up that do an organized drive through our small town) went by and suddenly I just started crying, thinking how my girl won't be around to have these small moments. And not that she would have - she wasn't a huge Christmas or celebration person. So I don't know why I'm sitting here crying about it.Oh this is going to hurt a lot :-(See More
